Local news sources in Sistan and Baluchestan reported that the 'Jaish al-Adl' group claimed responsibility for the attack on the IRGC base in Saravan last night. According to the group's announcement, they 'raided the IRGC base in Saravan County using appropriate weapons last night.' The 'Halosh' website quoted the group's statement, noting that the IRGC forces 'were terrified' after the attack and 'fired indiscriminately for about an hour in various directions.' Following the group's attack on the IRGC base last night, security forces raided a residential house in the 'Golshahr Payam-e A'zam' area of Chabahar in the early hours of Tuesday, January 25, leading to clashes and gunfire. On January 20, the armed group's attack on the 'Bideld' checkpoint in the Rask County of Sistan and Baluchestan resulted in the death of a military officer. The 'Jaish al-Adl' group (previously known as 'Jundallah') has been designated as a 'terrorist' organization by the United States for about 13 years. Since its establishment around 20 years ago, this group has participated in numerous attacks that have resulted in the deaths and injuries of several Iranian government forces and a number of civilians. The ongoing conflict between the Iranian government forces and Jaish al-Adl was discussed with Mehdi Nakhl-Ahmadi; the IRGC's missile strikes on the Chabahar petrochemical facility; the killing of a soldier in an attack on a checkpoint in Rask; 'Jaish al-Adl' accepted responsibility for the attack.
